Simon Cowell & Russell Brand Want Britney

The Brits love Brit! How cheesy did that sound? Maybe if I keep writing like that I can ~fit in~ with the latest batch of Britney sites. Wine please!

According to MTV.com, X-Factor judge wants Britney to appear on his other hit show American Idol.

"I would love to see her mentor the contestants," Cowell said. "If she doesn't want to do that, but wants to perform on the [American Idol] show - I would welcome that at any time. She would, literally, be first on the list, as far as I'm concerned in any capacity. (She) was a riot. I loved it."

"The buzz we had on our show (The X Factor) was extraordinary. And even with all that stuff that's gone on with her the past two years, there was more excitement and interest in her than I've seen in anyone in years. She would be very, very welcome."

I think it's awesome Britney is getting back out there and performing, BUT (yes, there's a but) I'm kind of over these television performances. I'm thinking a cool sit-down interview with Letterman or Leno would be amazing promotion. That is, if she's up for it.

According to OKmagazine.com, Brand seemed pretty excited last night at the L.A. premiere of Bedtime Stories when hearing of Britney's currently single relationship status:

quote:

"She's looking for a boyfriend now? I'm going now! Is she here? I'm just gonna be quick," he joked to reporters as he pretended to run off the red carpet. "There's not a moment to lose!"

Britney and Russell reportedly went on a date back in mid-September after the VMAs according to the Daily Mail, saying the two "enjoyed an intimate dinner at Hollywood's Little Red Door restaurant, where they arrived and left separately in an apparent effort to avoid being photographed together."

An inside source has exclusively revealed otherwise to BreatheHeavy.com, saying the two were and are "just friends."

I'm going to say pass on both Cowell and Brand's invitations. In fact, I'd probably take it to the next level and tell Britney to say "fuck that" to both, but A.) I don't curse and B.) I don't like exaggeration at all.
